Encaged in his arms, clenching her jaw, she could only give up. In front of this formidable man, there was no place on the Earth she could run or hide in.
Even if, by some lucky chance, she succeeded in escaping his grasp and run out of this room, what place was there his influence didn't reach? Who would be willing to provide her shelter and offend this tyrant?

No matter how much effort she put or how far she got, in the end it would just be as much work as flicking a finger for him to get her back right into his bed.
Xu Xinya made up her mind.
With a settled heart, she rose her head. But once her eyes landed on that cold chiselled face, events of last night flashed across her mind.
At that time... when he had held her down... and...
Unwanted hotness emerged between her legs and crawled up her abdomen. Xu Xinya sucked in a deep breath in shock. Under the quilt, her fists tightened even more. Her nails dug into the flesh of her palm.
Afraid that he might look through what she was feeling, Xu Xinya quickly looked away hiding her expression from him.
Why was her body giving such a reaction? She hated him, wasn't that obvious? Then why?
Her eyes welled up with moisture at the helplessness. It was not because of being held captive by him. It was because of those conflicting feelings. What was it that she really wanted? It was her conflicting feeling that had caused last night.
She thought after a night, they would be clear. But those strange feelings were still there. Evermore confusing now.
Suddenly her face was roughly grabbed and forcefully made to look into his eyes.
The sudden movement made tears roll down her rosy cheeks like colorless shining pearls. His thumbs lifted up and gently stroked her soft cheeks, wiping away her warm tears. But soon, they were replaced by new and fresh ones.
She had never cried in front of him like this. Not even once. Not even last night.
He glanced at his wet thumb and chuckled darkly. "Why?" He looked at her clouded eyes. Over his face that had always been excessively cold, grew a few layers of frosts. "I asked why?" His voice grew louder, demanding an explanation.
However, Xu Xinya didn't respond.
After a long while passed and she still didn't respond, she felt him leaning in closer to her. His lips were inches away from her neck. His hot breath brushed her sensitive neck. A pleasant shiver ran down her spine making Xu Xinya widen her eyes in shock.
"Last night..." His light voice whispered into her ear. "Didn't you like it very much?" There was a hint of anger and threat in his tone. His displeasure at her reactions was clear.
Yet, his deep evocative voice successfully brought back those images that Xu Xinya was struggling so hard to suppress.
Those hot passionate kisses..., her moans..., her shameless words...
"Please, don't!" She shut her eyes tight, slightly shaking her head as if denying those images to appear.
"I remember it was you who was screaming my name when I..."
"I said stop it!" She raised her hands and placing them over his shoulders, she pushed herself away from him. Sucking in a sharp breath, she covered her ears with her hands, unwilling to hear a single word from him.
He scoffed slightly; cold and unfeeling. Leaning back in, he grabbed her chin "Does it hurt that bad?" His other hand slipped under the quilt and rested atop her warm thigh, skin to skin.
Feeling a strong hand over the delicate skin of her thigh, Xu Xinya curled her toes. Her heart thumped louder than ever. Placing her small, delicate hand over his hand, she tried to push him off. However, how could she have the strength to force him to do something?
Her actions only caused the hold over her flesh to tighten in warning. An immense heat crawled up her thigh making her breathings tremble slightly. The hand that as resting atop his, over the quilt, trembled and weakened.
The feelings in her heart grew turbulent.
"Just what else you want now?" She raised her head and looked into his eyes. "Haven't you already taken everything from me? Aren't you satisfied now? Would you only stop once I kill myself out of desperation?"
Seeing that he paused, Xu Xinya knew her harsh words finally had an effect on him. She continued. "Is it my death you want? You might think that I won't take such a step because of my family. But Lu Mingyu, let me tell you. If you push me over my limits, I won't even care for my family anymore."
Just as she expected, anger roiled up within those deep dark orbs. A cold, chiiling anger. It was as if dark clouds of gloom had suddenly infiltrated the room. The atmosphere had changed so quickly. Any moment, something was about to erupt.
Xu Xinya waited. Keeping her tear-filled yet determined eyes fixated onto his face, keeping her hand strongly holding still his hand over her thigh.
And then. He opened his mouth and laughed.
It was the most cold and chilly laugh ever.
"Do you think by killing yourself you can escape me?" The hand on her thigh never left. Instead, it only tightened more and more. To the point Xu Xinya knew she that if he pressed a little more, she would have gotten a mark.
However, his strength never surpassed the limit to actually hurt her.
Suddenly, he climbed onto the bed and pinned her down. Startled, Xu Xinya struggled.
"Stop!" She could see last night about to repeat.
